Contextual determinants of kindergarten culture as indicators of children’s well-being during their transition and adaptation

Sažetak
Transition and adaptation are challenging periods in children’s
lives, and some of the most common ones are concerned with
the setting of early childhood care and education institution. The
contemporary Ecological and Dynamic Model of Transition highlights
the importance of interaction between many intra- and
interpersonal factors in the efficient transition and adaptation,
which often reveals the key contextual factors of kindergarten culture.
Therefore, the fundamental objective of this paper is to provide
a detailed and systematic overview of contemporary
knowledge in the field of the culture of early childhood care and
education institutions and theoretical models of transition as well
as relevant practices. The contribution of this review of recent scientific
literature is all the more significant since there are very
few such studies as well as empirical research in our country. The
defined conclusions should provide guidelines for future research
in our country as well as guidelines for further theoretical reflections
and discourses related to the possibilities of improving practices
related to children’s transition and adaptation in early
childhood care and education institutions.
